Period is what we often call menstruation. Since each woman's physical fitness is different, the symptoms before menstruation are also different. Many women are very curious about the signs that their period is coming. Since everyone wants to know so much, the editor has specially invited gynecological experts to let you hear what they say!

Symptoms before menstruation:

1. Many healthy women will also experience some discomfort and temperament changes, and they will know that their period is coming soon, such as a feeling of pelvic heaviness, back pain, headache, breast swelling, edema, irritability, and anger, which is called premenstrual discomfort. The disease is generally mild and does not require treatment. However, some women have severe premenstrual symptoms that affect their work and life, which is called premenstrual syndrome.

2. Premenstrual syndrome usually occurs 7 to 14 days before menstruation, is most severe 2 to 3 days before menstruation, and disappears or is significantly alleviated after menstruation. Discomfort is multifaceted and varies from person to person. Some women have more prominent edema, some women have more obvious breast pain, and some women mainly have mental symptoms. Sometimes, several symptoms coexist and therefore vary in severity.

3. Edema usually occurs one week before menstruation. Edema may also occur at other times and worsen before menstruation. Weight gain due to edema. Edema may also be accompanied by headache, runny nose, heaviness in the lower limbs, abdominal distension, constipation, etc. Breast pain can occur before or after menstruation. There are small nodules in the breasts, which are painful to touch. The pain becomes better after menstruation, but reappears before the next menstruation.

4. The main symptoms before menstruation are: There are obvious changes in leucorrhea before menstruation, and the most obvious symptom is the increase of leucorrhea. Before menstruation, the pelvic cavity is congested and the blood flow to the cervix and vagina increases, so the secretion of leucorrhea is more than usual.

5. When the period is approaching, the discharge may be a little pink, and then gradually turn into blood, which is menstruation. After the menstruation is over, the blood flow in the uterus and vagina returns to normal and the leucorrhea also decreases. In this case, increased vaginal discharge is normal because it is caused by the influence of estrogen. It is also normal to have increased vaginal discharge at other times, such as before intercourse or after pregnancy.

Adolescent women often experience the above symptoms before their menstrual period. At this time, they should restrain themselves, control their nervousness, and remain optimistic and cheerful. First of all, you must understand that this is a normal physiological phenomenon, which does not cause much harm to the body. The symptoms will subside with the onset of menstruation. Parents, teachers and classmates should give more advice, try to avoid unnecessary mental stimulation, and help them get through the tense and anxious moments. The principle of diet is to eat light food, eat more vegetables and fruits, drink more boiled water, and enhance appetite.

I don’t know if you have matched these signs with the ones that your period is coming. Having these symptoms means it is normal and you don’t need to worry too much. During women's menstrual period, the most important thing is to adjust their mentality and not be too impatient. This is obviously not good for their body. I hope everyone can pay more attention to it and it will be fine in a few days.
